Husband an wife police team cost city $20 million

Login to view embedded media
Something for everyone in this , husband and wife cops falsely arrest and electro torture man for second time , and charge him with trafficking fentanyl even though they didn’t find any .
Because changing his flat tire was “suspicious “.

Interesting thing the husband of this dynamic duo - works in a different jurisdiction but came to aid his wife in torturing a citizen and helped concoct the trafficking charges

So you learn why Trump is asking for Greenland and the canal

Fabio Martinez

oteSrpsnod9219g:12hagm7cgM9y2ri 33096nc614 AaaJuhuta2t2fu 0 ·
If you want to learn why the U.S. A wants to control Greenland and why the Gulf of Mexico needs to be renamed to the gulf of America please read this.
In the interest of pointing out misinformation. In Dec 2023 there was a decision by the World Court, that gave water above land shelves to those countries and ruled they were not international water. The renaming of the Gulf of America isn't renaming the whole gulf. It is renaming the area above our land shelves as our territory. You can't exactly put signs or border walls in the middle of the ocean. So for legal reasons, we need to identify these new changes on the map, so that new borders are made clear to maritime traffic. Those new maps will set the latitude and longitudes of where our border begins, or the Gulf of America. So all maritime traffic knows when they are leaving international waters. This is where knowing what is happening in the world, will help you filter out drama, and help you understand the legalities in your own country. This had nothing to do with Trump's ego, he is strengthening our borders and making sure all maritime traffic understands the changes that happened in 2023. Putting legal protections in place to help us enforce any military actions or incursion in the future. Betting most of you never realized the US grew by thousands of miles.
Likewise some of this radical idea of buying Greenland and possibly Canada. has nothing to do with his ego. That has to do with the race for minerals in the Arctic Ocean, protecting our borders, and getting us the legal right to help Europe protect their borders from the Russian and Chinese fleets that have been doing damage to infrastructure. If Greenland is the territory of the US, but still their own country like Puerto Rico, then we have the legal right to have a base there and the legal right to protect the waters around Greenland. The whole premise right now, if we were to go help Europe it would trigger an act of war. We would have to wait for Nato action to do anything. If we have the legal right, to be there. Legal right to protect Greenland, then any response to defend our territory is not considered an act of war. It makes it easier to help our Allies. Also, like as not, Russia and China have been making plans to invade Greenland. I have been hearing they are trying to buy up land around harbors in several countries or eyeing what they can take by force.
So Trump is not crazy. Not being an egotistical dictator. He is trying to strengthen the U.S. and working to provide some checks and balances that strengthen our ability to help Allies and prevent another world war. A lot of countries are getting we are the lesser of the two evils. Media not so much, they have grown allergic to fact-checking, and understanding any complex issue and just become about stirring drama rather than reporting facts, all of the facts.

Bullet Diameter vs Velocity

If 2 bullets have the same weight but different diameters, does one have a higher velocity over the other? For example: 6ARC vs 6.5 Grendel or 22CM vs 6CM or 6CM vs 6.5CM. I think I read somewhere that the larger diameter bullet would have a higher velocity assuming all other variables were equal (barrel length, charge weight, etc.). Can someone help explain this?

.300 win mag 26" barrel hornady 208g

was talking to another reloader and he mentioned that some people add a few grains of fast powder at the bottom of their load to help ignition. It got me thinking about putting some fast powder at the top of the load to give the bullet some extra kick as it is traveling down the barrel. I have a 26" barrel so seems like a good idea, and if it does not blow up the gun on the first shot Ill let yall know next week. any experience out there with this idea? I cant be the first, any proportion advice? my test loads have 60g Imr 4895 and 12g of 3031 on top. (full case). if I still have fingers on monday I plan to use 4350 and 3031 unfortunately I do not have a chronometer yet,
any useful advice is welcome,

Here is the Best Explanation I’ve Heard for the Crash at Reagan Airport From An Experienced Blackhawk Pilot and Crew Chief.



By Wayne Allyn Root

My longtime friend is a retired Colonel in the U.S. Army who served in the roles of both Blackhawk helicopter pilot, and Blackhawk Crew Chief as well. No one knows this helicopter better than my friend. Let’s call him Colonel Joe.

We’ve all seen the reports about the mistakes made in this tragic crash. We know the chopper was flying too high. We know the Control Tower was short of air controllers- and one controller was doing the job of two. It appears the Blackhawk was off course as well.

And we all suspect DEI could have been at fault- whether this involved the pilots, flight commanders on the ground, or the Air Controllers.

But my friend Colonel Joe is the expert. Here is Colonel Joe’s “Executive Summary.” These are his words- coming from a lifelong experienced Blackhawk pilot and Crew Chief.

In his opinion, the biggest issue is the flight was missing a fourth crew member for a night flight- a second Crew Chief.


Colonel Joe’s Executive Summary:

*The single-greatest error in this accident was the decision to fly without a second Crew Chief on the left-hand side of the Blackhawk, who could have provided an extra set of eyes to “look out-and-up” to see the approaching American Airlines Passenger plane.

*Night Vision Goggle (NVG) flights result in a sort-of “tunnel vision” for all who wear the NVGs and normal policy in many Army flight units is to force a full crew of 2 pilots and 2 crew chiefs for all NVG flights, so that you always have “eyes out” to both sides of the aircraft, when flying in those conditions. While not mandatory, it is the proper safety call, especially when flying in the vicinity of a busy, major airport such as Reagan Airport (DCA). No matter how competent the pilots and Crew Chiefs may be, this flight needed a second Crew Chief on the left side of the chopper.

*The front-left pilot, even if not wearing Night Vision Goggles, would still have limited visibility out the left door, and if that pilot is busy with radio calls, or referencing the map/GPS, that pilot could get consumed by work inside the cockpit, instead of looking out and around.

*Flight Unit Leadership failed to recognize the need for a second Crew Chief in the Mission Planning and Risk Assessment Process. This is where either incompetence, or DEI (or both), may have come into play. This was certainly poor leadership.

*Known mistakes by the Blackhawk Flight Crew point to a lack of experience and/or competence. We’ve heard in the media that both pilots were “experienced.” This is just not true. Someone is “blowing smoke” to the media, to President Trump, and to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, to “cover their ass.” The collective level of experience of the pilots was not impressive. Their level of experience is like comparing a rookie in the NFL to a second-year player. The pilot had the experience of a second-year player, while the co-pilot was a rookie. This was NOT an experienced crew to be flying at night, near a major airport, without a second crew chief.

*Radio calls were not responded to by the Blackhawk crew, and they flew at 350 Feet above ground level (AGL), whereas reports say they were supposed to fly at 200 Feet AGL. These two mistakes alone show that the crew were not as experienced or professional as reported to President Trump, Defense Secretary Hegseth, or the media.

*The Instructor Pilot may have been too inexperienced for this “Annual Evaluation” flight, as mistakes were clearly made during the course of the flight (that are assumed to have been made by the junior pilot being evaluated). Why didn’t the Instructor Pilot notice they were flying too high and off course? That points to his lack of experience. If there had been a second Crew Chief, he could have noticed these mistakes and warned the pilots.

*The Flight Unit Commanders must share the blame, and they’re still alive! There is a 12th Aviation Battalion commander of that B Company, and I don’t know who that is, but this individual was the first leader in the chain of events for the Mission Plan and Risk Assessment to get signed off and approved. This B Company commander should be asked why they did not enforce a second Crew Chief to be on that flight.

*Accident sequences for these types of accidents begin in “Mission Planning,” when first selecting the time you will fly, where you will fly for the Annual Evaluation, and what crew members will be on the flight. Any of the Leaders in that unit’s Chain of Command could have demanded that this flight have two Crew Chiefs aboard the aircraft, due to NVG flying conditions, plus the busy airspace of Reagan airport.

*An experienced, thoughtful leader knows when to “raise the standard” and force the mission to have that second Crew Chief aboard the aircraft. This was clearly one of those moments, and both the B Company Commander and the 12th Aviation Battalion Commander failed to see through this risk problem and impose their own “Risk Reduction” to include a second Crew Chief to manage the left-hand side of the Blackhawk.

*In my opinion, even with all these mistakes that were made, a Crew Chief on the left side of the Blackhawk would still have saved them in that last 20 seconds when that American Airlines flight was approaching on the left-hand side. A Crew Chief in that seat would have warned the pilots to turn and descend immediately.

This accident was completely avoidable. Thank you to my friend Colonel Joe for this thoughtful analysis.

Suppressors Alignment rods - steel or carbon fiber

I know some on here feel they aren't necessary. If you're one of those, no need to comment.

I would like a 30 caliber alignment rod.

I see some are made of carbon fiber, some stainless steel and some tool steel (maybe others that I haven't seen).

I've always been told to never put a steel rod down the barrel when cleaning, so I was looking at getting the carbon fiber alignment rod.

Are there pros/cons to using one material over the other with regards to alignment rods?

How about we pay back these fucking scammers?

Just an idea for the group. What say you?

Why don't we all report to paypal that accounts/individuals are selling firearms related items. Would this get their accounts and funds frozen? Might cut down on the problems if the accounts are getting frozen, regardless of where they are located.

I like paybacks and Karma for these sonzabitches/orgaized crime groups.


Just a thought...

I just saw Chris Kraft put out a video on scope hight,for years I’ve put my scopes up high so I didn’t have to do contortions with my neck and head to get positioned behind my scopes,I was told I would never get any type of accuracy this way well I always disagreed I felt when I was more comfortable my POI was always consistent .from what I understand it’s never been a proven fact if you run your scope high it will be less accurate .

Rifle Scopes New Athlon MPVO options for 2025

I haven't been keeping up with what all is new at Athlon but I saw these this morning and thought I'd mention them.

It's the .06 mil reticle thickness and the G3 upgrades that interests me. I had the G1 MT 4-16 which is a stand out of priceperquality and sold it right away because it was hard for me to see the reticle on low power because it was .04 mil thick.

I've been kicking around the idea of taking the LSAT and going back to school for my JD in a few years.
I already have a BA (Crim) and Masters (Int Relations), but I am thinking about law (still thinking about what direction, criminal, corporate, international are the three that most interest me). I'm a little bit older and more focused but age is still a consideration.
For those that have done it, any recommendations? Anything you wish you would have known before taking this journey?
